To Install AMON RA Do i need to delete Rom Manager from my phone? Or flash the alternative (AmonRa) in my rom manager and delete Rom manager
What I really wanna do is Change from Cloworkmod to Amon RA
Help !! Thanks
I am placing PC36IMG in my root, go into bootloader and Is not updating anything!
1. You can change via rom manager, just know rom manager won't work with amon_ra
2. If the bootloader isn't detecting it, it is because
a) It wasn't named PC36IMG, correctly
b) You have two PC36IMGs on the root of your sd card

Make sure it is named PC36IMG.zip
Yes, and make sure you do not have two .zips (PC36IMG.zip.zip) at the end.
You may also need to select bootloader if you are in fastboot mode.
OHH Crap!!! I was name it PC36IMG without .zip!!
so..after i do and Instal Amon ra, is ROm manager useless and can I delete it?
Or currently i falshed the alternative recovery Amon ra 2.2, Can i delete Rom manager then?
ROM manager is useless anyhow, except for one thing; fixing permissions, which you can still do with Amon Ra
Nevermind, Amon RA 2.3 up and running!!!
Thanks
After you have flashed amon ra it doesn't matter what you do with Rom manager. I found that your old nandroids from Rom manager won't work with amon ra so make sure you do a backup before you change anything.

How do you fix permissions using Amon Ra? Is it the fix mismatched uid? Or am I missing it somehwere?

go into other and fix permissions is there.
PapaSmurf, I am running 2.3 and under Other my three options are: Return, Fix apk uid mismatches, and move recovery.log to SD...
So, would "fix apk uid mismatches" = 'fix permissions' in an earlier version?

Yep, you got it. Just select that, wait for it to finish, and you're done. I wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions every few days just to keep stuff running smoothly. It's a good habit to get into.

Hey guys, need help going back to Amon Ra from Clockworkmod. Any help will be appreciated.. Thanks
Install ROM Manager and use it to flash Amon RA, it should be at the bottom of the main screen. You may have to let it reflash CWM first, but it goes back and forth easily.

Easy way? Install RomManager there's a option to flash an alternative recovery (Amon')

I think you are confused,if you do a nand back up using rom manager,then you need to restore it with clockworkmod (via recovery or rom manager) but you can not resore nor back up with Amon_ra using rom manager.
I used to have the Amon Ra recovery then tried the clockworkmod recovery. I want my nand backup from the amon ra but I can't restore it via clockworkmod.

Copy the /sdcard/nandroid/ folder to /sdcard/clockworkmod/nandroid (not 100% sure on the second path, I'll be able to tell you later tonight when I flash the nightly).
Voila, now you have your AR backups, in CWM.
So, if I understand.
I have Amon Ra and want to dl Rom Manager/Premium and flash CW Mod. I will then have a usable option at bottom to toggle between Ra and CW. Restore backups thru whichever one I used to back it up.
But, when I flash back to Amon Ra, I need to close out of Rom Manager and use Amon Ra as I have been doing.
drmacinyasha, I like your idea, but not sure I know how to do that safely. I am not good at ADB or Root Explorer if that is an option. Or do you just mount and do it on the pc?

Oops,
Guess the first part of my question was answered on page 1. These Looong threads are hard to keep up with.
Pardon my ignorance but I am trying to figure amon ra out. Do I have to have the zip files on the root of the SD card to flash them?
Reason is because it won't let me navigate to my download folder or my roms folder.

Yup, and 1.9 or 2.x (whichever Amon_RA releases for EVO) will have folder navigation.
ok i tried putting amon ra recovery on my evo and i was unsuccessful. I was using clockwork at the time when trying to install amon ra. so since it didnt work i install valpaek rom cuz it has an option in settings to use amon ra recovery. now my question is if i change roms again will i lose the amon ra recovery once my new rom is installed? cuz i really dont wanna use clockwork mod...
Wrong They do NOT need to be on the root with AR.
I have a folder on my SD Card called XDA, and in there, I keep all my zip files, etc in sub folders labeled ROMS, APPS, Themes, Divers, etc....

Don't use ROM Manager to flash AR.
Don't use ROM Manager, period, tbh, except to fix permissions.
Rename this file PC36IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD Card, reboot to Hboot (Vol dwn/Power) then when it scan and asks you to update, hit yes and it'll install AR.
Then when it reboots, hit no after the scan and then hit Recovery
i just flashed ra recovery from clockwork where do i put the cm6 zip so it can be flashed? also where do i put my clockwork recovery nand backup so ra recovery can see it?

Put the zip anywhere and clockwork backups won't work on ra.

If it's the new RA recovery(2.1.1 I think? or 2.2?), it can be anywhere. I haven't used it yet (still on 1.8.0, if it's not broke, don't fix it), so I don't know how to navigate folders with it. On RA 1.8.0, the zip has to be on the root of your sd card for it to see it. And as the other guy said, you can't use clockwork nandroid backups on RA, and vice versa. So I suggest making backups with both, definitely is safe.
Quick question: I want to flash Anon RA recovery but I already have Clockwork mod installed, do I need to delete clockwork first or can i just flash anon ra from the bootloader no problem? i dont want to run into any problems.
Followup question: for anon ra is there a similar "rom manager" app that works with it?
Longer explanation: Ive been trying out several sense gingerbread roms and noticed how fast i max out my internal memory. I read you can partition the memory card and use an apps to sd card app to fix this, but if you try to partition with clockwork you could potentially brick the phone. even though its been addressed in later versions it looks like it has still happened a couple times and this makes me nervous. plus it seems everyone says anon ra is a better recovery anyway.
Thanks!
You can just flash amon-ra without deleting clockwork. I don't know of a rom manager app for amon-ra but its safer and more thorough to do everything manually in recovery anyway
We're comin from a pure power source.
Just flash amon ra from Rom manager, its near the bottom, I think it says "flash alternate recovery". And remember, you can't do a nand restore from ra that you made with cwm.
I have to disagree with that, sorry. The best thing to do with Rom Manager is uninstall it. Flash the AR PC36IMG.zip from the AR thread in the Dev section
thanks worked well. deleted rom manager too just to be sure
Installing Amon Ra from ROM Manager or flashing it manually doesn't matter. Either way will yield the same results. But I agree with getting rid of ROM Manager. So make it useful one time to flash Amon Ra before you delete it and then part ways.

Just beware, in case it wasn't clear, you cannot use backups made with Clockwork on Amon and vice versa. It would be wise to immediately create a new nandroid backup when you switch over to Amon. Don't forget to make an individual Wimax nandroid backup too.
How do you get rid of backups to save space?
I created a clockwork backup but plan on switching to Amon Ra so I want to erase all unnecessary files.
when i rooted my evo about a week ago i followed instructions to the t for the ENERGY sense rom. i use revolution-0.4 i think that included clockwork mod for the custom recovery. i was thinking of switching to amon ra recovery. can i jsut download and flash it or will that cause problems? if so what do i need to do prior to switching recovery tools?
All you need to do to switch recoveries is download Amon Ra. Rename it to PC36IMG.zip. Then put it on the root of your sdcard. Boot into bootloader and it will ask you to update, press volume up for "yes" and bam your done. Then delete the PC36IMG.zip. (if it doesn't ask you to update when you boot into the bootloader, start your phone back up and remove the ".zip" from the recovery you renamed.

Remember that if you have any backups with your current recovery,theres a chance the new one will not be able to verify the MD5SUM and restore your current backups.

Theres a strong possibility,they are 2 different recoveries.I know from experience a few times,but then again weirder things have happened,all i can say is you can try.
